Keyboard sampler plays samples on 'note off' as well as 'note on'

Hi all. I’m fairly new to Max and am trying to get a sampler going for a
concert in a month. I need to trigger samples with my midi keyboard.
All is well other than the fact that the samples sound with note on, as well as
with note off. So when I release the key, the sample sounds again.

I need this to be a poly instrument, I’ve got samples overlapping. I just
used a patcher that I found.

you did not included your poly object . but as far as i know “note” has two events – on note , off note that is also present in note number (simply u get the same note number on note off that cause your trigger). check [stripnote] to get rid of note offs for the trigger . but u still can use normal note flow for your envelope .

I have been working with [stripnote], and still can’t get it to work. Ugh!

I don’t have time to look at your patch right now, but you may get some pointers from my StupidSynth example here: http://www.xfade.com/max/examples/
or Simple FM Synth which can be found here: http://www.xfade.com/max/
